Don't think it's about privacy. It's about that he wants money from openai because he tried to buy them out or something, or was involved a long time ago, or tried to get involved, or whatever, but he thinks he should have a big payday from it now that its stock is up.
Has anyone ever given any thought to trying to capture all the floodwaters that seem to be increasing lately, and moving them to the more drought affected areas?
Moving? No. But apparently an early benefit of dams was to provide water throughout the year. Might see more of that.
Moving water is tricky. If you're lucky you can move it downhill, but I expect the situations where you can do that from flood to drought is not common. Moving uphill is pretty much out because it'll take too much energy.
If you have a machine with no current operating system on it that will not boot from a CD-ROM, you must use this method. Setup disks are a set of four disks that form a minimal installation of Windows 2000
I wasn't aware there were CD-ROMs that you couldn't boot from.
Trains pay for their infrastructure, trucks don't pay for the road.
Time. Shipping by rail means lots of sitting and shunting into different trains. Trucks can just go.
First and last mile. Because we have set up industry and commence to work off road, that means to go by rail has a first and last mile that has to be truck anyway. So double/triple handling adding to cost. I wonder if we'll redo some.
Setting up rails to be autonomous single cars powered by overhead electrical lines that can just go from one location to the next could solve a lot of this.
That's pretty interesting to hear about the government owning the rail. Wasn't aware anyone did that. Depends on the fees for each but for the ones I'm aware of truck fees are negligible.
This article was talking about "across the country", the example being between Melbourne and Sydney.
Autonomous trains are a legitimate idea. Yes it gets a lot of attention from 'innovators' which make it sound like a scam, but it's legit idea. It has a lot of hurdles to get through. It solves some problems like not having to shunt and move individual cars around which can be a real problem. The economy of scale of one long train is a double edge sword, it introduces a lot of arrangement, assembly, moving individual cars around at the start and finish, and time (cost of inventory in transit is very real). Also it allows one crew (people are expensive) for many cars. I don't think there's a fundamental reason we can't do both on the same system. When you get down to it the benefit of rail is that steel on steel has lower rolling resistance, lower wear and tear, and cheaper infrastructure.
TLDR: There was a recent shakeup of the Russian top brass and an economist was put in a top job. He thinks the economist has told Putin that this can not be sustained given Russia's capability and Western promised support. Putin might actually be listening and why he wants to settle on current control.
Beau covered a lot of that. This isn't the only economist that has said it, but it might be one that Putin is finally listening to. And he's not just a random economist, apparently forecasting is his whole thing, he's really good at it, and I get the impression it's far more detailed than general economy. Which is probably why he specifically got the job and is being listened to.

I wonder if they consulted structural engineers. Putting multiple 1000 lb loads on roofs that weren't designed for it doesn't seem like a good business plan.

That's what some analysts say but I really don't think China cares. They want the land (*it's strategically important for naval operations) and a unified China.

Ah the "Biden had it for 2 years and we don't have the Jetsons' life!1! Dems bad!1!".
Nevermind that he's actually doing a fuckton, but dude things take time. They need to win consistently and overwhelmingly. Not just barely sneaking in a win, for 2/4 years of a presidency. Or Obama's 2/8 years. Or the more sober Obama's 4 months/8 years for filibuster proof super majority, and Biden's 0 months/4 years. That's why the keywords are consistently and overwhelmingly.
